CHARITABLE BUNCH

This is something near and dear to our hearts here at Howlings:

Northland AEG announced today that the March of Dimes has named the Hartford Wolf Pack Presenting Sponsor of the Hartford March for Babies.

The Wolf Pack raised a total of $10,560 to benefit March of Dimes’ mission to give all babies a healthy start, through an auction of specialty jerseys at the Pack’s January 17 home game.

“We are honored to have this major sponsorship role in this year’s March for Babies,” said Chuck Steedman, Senior Vice-President and General Manager of Northland AEG and the XL Center.  “Giving infants a better chance at a healthy start in life is a goal of huge importance in cities like Hartford, and we are very proud to be able to assist in such an important fund-raising effort as the March for Babies.”

The Wolf Pack will also be entering a team in the Hartford March for Babies, which takes place Sunday, April 26, starting at the XL Center.  To join the Wolf Pack team, visit its team page at:
